Summary "Marianne: kertomus" by Vilhelm Krag is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the life of Konsuli Hans Ebbesen, a wealthy and respected yet feared figure in his city, who faces a series of unfortunate events and financial troubles. As he navigates his struggles, his daughter Marianne stands as a symbol of hope and innocence, juxtaposed against the darkening clouds of his declining fortune. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Konsuli Ebbesen, a man burdened by his past successes that have turned sour. Despite his wealth and status, he grapples with the weight of impending failure and his desire to secure a future for his treasured daughter, Marianne. The opening chapters explore Ebbesen's despair over his dwindling luck, contrasted with Marianne's lively engagement with life as she interacts with friends and navigates the societal expectations placed upon her. Ebbesen's inner turmoil regarding his daughter's future, as well as the possibility of losing everything, sets a tone of anxiety and foreshadowing that draws the reader into the complexities of familial love and societal pressures.
